Filipinos don't go to museums! In fact I think they are allergic to it. It's a shame really, we have bred a generation of people who have no idea about art, history and culture.

The last one I remember going to is the Ayala Museum. I want to go back for the permanent exhibit on the gold find.

I also wanted to go to the Bangko Sentral's museum, which also houses some of the gold collections (courtesy of former BSP governor Jaime Laya).

Just my two cents though...

Mayon legend in ballet set for Feb 8 at the CCP
Quote:


Legazpi City — Albay further drums up its tourism promotion drive with a ballet presentation on February 8 at the main theater of the Cultural Center of the Philippines of its legendary origin as a province and that of Mayon Volcano, depicting a story of enduring love and sacrifice.

The theatrical fare, “Daragang Magayon, an Istorya ni Mayon,” fuses the talents of illustrious Philippine contemporary artists. Its lyrics was penned by poet and critic National Artist for Literature Virgilio Almario. Its music was crafted by composer Ramon Pagayon Santos, who was also involved in the earlier stage production of the Albay myth.

Museum of Natural History
Manila

Quote:
DOT building to be transformed into Museum of Natural History

The Department of Tourism building will soon be retrofitted to house the third museum in what shall become Manila’s Museum Precinct.

Anchoring the precinct is the newly completed National Gallery of Art, formerly the Senate Building on Burgos Drive, where the country’s definitive collection of paintings is on display.

Across the street is the Museum of the Filipino People that once was the Department of Finance Building, whose curved façade frames Agrifina Circle.

Across the Circle is its twin structure, the DOT building, originally the Department of Agriculture building.


EXTERIORS of the heritage DOT building will be maintained, except for the addition of a glass dome covering the central courtyard.

The board of trustees awarded the project to the team of architect Dominic Galicia and interior designer Tina Periquet.

Supported by a stylized steel double helix representing our shared DNA, a glass dome covers the central courtyard of the building. Rising six stories above the courtyard’s floor, the helix is the sculptural focus of the Galicia scheme which visually and intellectually unites nature with art.


DIGITAL rendering of the stylized helix representing Filipino DNA and heritage

Gallery and office spaces on the periphery open out to six levels, looking out to the enormous glass-covered courtyard cooled by an energy-saving system that circulates air throughout the six levels.


SHOWN by blue arrows, air circulation through the central courtyard passively cools the interior environment. Low-emissivity glass reflects solar heat, as shown by yellow arrows.
